The sperm cell is haploid (has half as many chromasomes as the diploid nerve cell)The sperm cell can contain more mutations (depending on the age of the man, this is the basis of anticipation)The sperm cell's chromasome has undergone recombination (I'm assuming you know what that is)


How many chromosomes do humans have in each of their reproductive cells why is it important?

In both an egg cell and a sperm cell, there are 23 chromosomes. The sperm and egg unite (fertilize) to create a zygote (fertilized egg). A zygote has 46 chromosomes. This is important because if a sperm and/or an egg cell have 1 more or 1 less chromosome, a mutation could form in the zygote.

How much sperm can a man produced?

It really depends on how old and the rate you masturbate at, most boys start producing some sperm around 14-16, the older you get the more you can produce but once you get to a certain age (say 40) you will start to produce less and less the older you get. A male produces around 5ml of semen (teaspoon) during an ejaculation on average, this will hold millions of sperm cells.


Why do you have more semen then sperm?

Sperm like having a "pool" of semen in which to swim. They can swim close together but not as freely. However, less semen does not mean less sperm or less powerful swimmers.
